Good catch, --notest isn't even evaluated with dh7 ...

For dh7 we just copy a template debian/rules file (whereas for dh < 7
there is some meddling going on) because the necessary dh_* commands
are called by `dh' (and so we have a nice short debian/rules file).
For your case: Replace
build-stamp:
dh build
touch $@
with
build-stamp:
dh build --before dh_auto_test
dh build --after dh_auto_test
touch $@
(from the top of my head, please check man 1 dh)
But I agree that this has to be fixed in dh-make-perl one way or
another ...
Cheers,
